I need a .gif of you getting punched in the face. Post haste.
Eye of the Tiger morning sequence was pretty epic too.

Bravo!! I'd also add Major League to the list but that's a GOOD movie.
And GO CUBBIES!

Hilarious as always, Nostalgia Critic.
The montage set to "Eye of the Tiger" had me especially crying with laughter. When I saw the Cheerio's box, I had a feeling you would make a callback to Cheerios 2. And you did! And I laughed even harder.

I remember watching Rookie of the Year as a kid. I don't remember much of it, apart from the fact that it was directed by Daniel "Marv from Home Alone" Stern. How interesting is that? I'm surprised he could direct with all those bricks and irons to the forehead.
One film I'm surprised you missed is [url=http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0116165/]Ed[/url], which features Matt Le Blanc moving up the baseball ranks... with a monkey. I'm dead serious. Also, in the memorable quotes section, Le Blanc actually says, "I am going to spank that monkey!" Speechless.

God I hate it when one person starts to clap and then turns into a roaring applause! Great work!!!
Oh, and was the guy who punched him in the face his brother?

YES! A new one! Frankly, I thought sport films were dumb. I only ever liked the Little Giants and the Sandlot. AND THE SLOW CLAP NEVER WORKS IN REAL LIFE! Trust me, I tried.

I totally agree. The only exceptionally good children's sport movie I've seen was The Sandlot, that is, the original, not the sequels. Mighty Ducks was mediocre, Air Bud was lame, Angels in the Outfield was lame, and I have yet to see The Karate Kid, Cool Runnings, and Little Giants. But The Sandlot was awesome, an instant classic.

The Cheerios 2 reference was awesome. Oh God, is the disembodied voice back to kick his ass again?
That said, the only sports movie I ever liked was Remember the Titans, and that wasn't even really about sports so much as it was racial relations.

This one had some great jokes. The Cheerios in-joke, for example, was quite welcome and that one about the Cubs was priceless.
It's great to see that you're shaking up the format a bit. It's not like any of your other reviews and it's definitely not like any of your Top 11 lists, but it's still very much a NC production.
So why is it, when you're doing so many things differently, that you keep starting your reviews with "You know..."? That really bugs me. Space Jam started that way, the Theme Song countdown started that way... it just seems like such a terrible segue into the routine proper.
That said, I think you did a great job of reviewing several movies that were only linked by genre. You should take this approach to a series of movies. Might I suggest the Muppets?

Good work as usual, man. Very entertaining. The part about the slow clap was ingenious.

Hmmm...I've never thought any sports movies were good. But that may be due to my accursed lady parts!

Great job again NC. Perfect. I don't know what I'd do on a daily basis without your videos.
